Chapter 137: Ruthless
"Southwest?" Han Xiao and the others were all stunned, and subconsciously looked back. You must know that the southwest direction is the direction where Tianning Kingdom is located, and if it is the pursuit of the Chi family, it should be rushed from the east.
"Could it be that those guys have made a big circle and gone back to us?" Zhao Gangdan said puzzledly.
"No, they shouldn't have guessed that we were ambushing here, and their ship is not that fast, if it really had this speed, it would have caught up with us a long time ago, it would not be a roundabout. Han Xiao said very calmly.
The lookout on the lookout looked at it for a while and then shouted, "It's not the Chi family's warship. ”
Hearing this, Han Xiao and the others all breathed a sigh of relief first, it was not the Chi family's warship. Han Xiao and the others immediately rushed to the edge of the deck, everything on the Liberty was a fine product, and Han Xiao also had a long bamboo pipe in his hand, he now also knew what this thing was for, it was a thing called Lookout Eye, the name was very appropriate, and the crystal in the bamboo pipe could see things far away.
Western pirates are also very accomplished in the creation of lookout eyes, if it weren't for Situ Han's preparation to imitate them, this time they all planned to go to sea with the captured lookout eyes. However, even if it wasn't a Western pirate's thing, Han Xiao and the others could still easily see the situation in the distance.
Sure enough, it was not the Chi family warship, but to Han Xiao's surprise, it was the Han family's warship. Seeing the familiar and unfamiliar battle flags, Han Xiao's thoughts were a little confused. If you want to talk about her feelings for the Han family, Han Xiao can't say how deep, but she can't talk about any hatred. The Han family is such a family, iron-blooded but efficient, although there are elders like Han Debai, most of the Han family bosses can still be called strong. In the final analysis, Han Xiao does not love or hate this family, but after all, blood is thicker than water, and his sense of belonging to the Han family is much stronger than that of the Sun family, even after knowing that he is the blood of the Dongli family, he is still relatively alienated from the Sun family, but now seeing the Han family's warship, Han Xiao is still a little excited.
Han Xiao just wanted to step forward to meet with the Han family's warship, but suddenly thought of a problem - their ships and battle flags were very strange. In fact, the most important thing is the battle flag, the big toad painted by Zhao Gangdan is hanging on the mast, if it is approached directly like this, the Han family will inevitably fight back, the only thing that can be counted on is to play some special flags of the Han family, but Han Xiao found extremely sad after thinking about it, because he had been excluded too much in the Han family before, and he had never really studied the characteristics of the Han family's flag.
There was no way, and things just went on like this.
However, just when Han Xiao was still hesitating, the number of warships in the southwest direction suddenly increased. Originally, there was only one warship of the Han family, and they always remained cautious after they appeared. At this moment, on the other side of the Han family's warship, two warships suddenly came out of a pirate, and the two ships seemed to have no worries, and directly attacked the Han family's warship after they appeared.
The helplessness of naval warfare lies in this, once the two sides begin to attack, regardless of the advantages or disadvantages, it is difficult to withdraw at this time, if they are forcibly withdrawn, the biggest possibility is to be directly bombed to pieces by the other side.
Seeing this, Han Xiao hurriedly immediately ordered to rush over, and with the elite crew recruited by Situ Han, Han Xiao finally didn't have to drive the ship by himself.
Before, he observed the naval battle on this side with a lookout eye, and it was obvious that neither the Han warship nor his enemy realized that the Liberty was still alive, so when Han Xiao and the others suddenly came out, both sides were scared, and even ceased fire for a while.
"Hit, fight to death. Han Xiao shouted excitedly, and the people on the boat knew who to hit without him explaining.
But a strange scene appeared, when the Freedom began to storm the two warships, the rescued Han warship did not flank the enemy with it at this time, but directly ceased fire, and even turned the bow of the ship, as if it was going to do something to them. Seeing this situation, Han Xiao couldn't help but hesitate, but in this case, there was no way to cease fire, so he could only keep waving flags on the Korean warship and explain as much as possible.
Han Xiao was not afraid that the Han family's warship would attack them, but he didn't want to conflict with his own family, if he sank the opponent's warship in the sea, it would be a trouble to explain it later. Fortunately, the people on the Han family's boat on the other side still listened to Han Xiao's explanation - the explanation of the flag language - and finally didn't do anything to Han Xiao, but they just didn't do it.
In this battle, the strong combat power of the Liberty was completely displayed, and not long after the war began, Han Xiao had already noticed that the combat power of the two warships attacked by himself was surprisingly weak, not to mention compared with Western pirates, even the Huating Empire, no, even the navy of Tianning Country was inferior, although Han Xiao had not experienced many naval battles, but the enemies he had encountered were stronger than one another, and now he felt that the two ships he encountered were like children brought out to play home.
Just after Han Xiao was thinking about the origin of the opponent's warship, he suddenly saw a white flag suddenly rising on the mast of the opponent's ship. Seeing this scene, Han Xiao couldn't cry or laugh at all.
"Is it really a child's house?" Han Xiao rubbed his nose and said lightly.
After experiencing fierce battles in Tianpeng Mountain, the East China Sea, and the West Sea, Han Xiao has long practiced an iron-blooded style, a naval battle is a naval battle, how can he not fight because the other party raised a white flag. What's more, who are the people on the Liberty, the cultivation of the ten crew members recruited by the Evil Moon Master is not necessarily very high, but they are all experienced sailors, and they are now simply as if they didn't see the white flag on the opposite side, and even the fire of the spirit cannon has become more intense.
Just when Han Xiao was about to take down the other party in one go, the Han family warship over there suddenly began to wave the flag again, as if they were helping the two warships next to him to explain. After all, Qiyu couldn't explain the problem like he spoke, but seeing that the Han family's warships also began to block their offensive, Han Xiao had no choice but to cease fire in the end.
Zhao Gangdan said angrily: "No wonder you don't want to go home, are all your brothers in the family such idiots, pleading with the enemy?"
Han Xiao had nothing to say, so he could only cautiously approach the Han family's warship. After all, it was his own warship, and Han Xiao jumped on the boat without any scruples, ignoring the reminder of King Zhuge behind him. Zhao Gangdan knew how to play, so he directly wrapped himself around Han Xiao's shoulder and followed him on the boat.
The people on the Han family's boat didn't seem to expect Han Xiao to jump up so lightly, and when he got on the boat, several people on the deck even subconsciously retreated. But after seeing Han Xiao's appearance clearly, there were immediately bursts of puzzled exclamation on the deck.
"Huh? it's him......"
"Yes...... Han Xiao?"
"Han Xiao?"
For a while, Han Xiao's name kept being shouted out, and Han Xiao also took the time to see who was on the boat. To my surprise, all the people on board were young people, and they were all exceptionally young. Han Xiao saw Han Junming at a glance, and after seeing this kid's exposed chest hair, Han Xiao was in a trance for a while.
It seems that he had a conflict with him, it was only half a year ago, he broke his enchantment with three punches that day, and that time was also equivalent to his last contact with the children of the Han family, I didn't expect everyone to meet again in this kind of place at this time.
Obviously, Han Junming also recognized Han Xiao, in fact, everyone on the deck had already recognized Han Xiao, just looking at Han Xiao for a while, and then looking at the Freedom behind Han Xiao, their thoughts seemed to be a little confused.
"Han Xiao, ...... you" After hesitating for a long time, Han Lishan, the leader of this group of Han family disciples, finally spoke.
Han Xiao waved his hand, and seeing that he was still hesitating, he simply took the initiative to ask: "What is the situation with those two ships over there, and why are you pleading for them?" When he pointed over there, he saw that the two ships did not act rashly, and Han Xiao nodded with satisfaction.
Strictly speaking, Han Lishan is no longer a young child of the Han family, although he is also very young, but at the age of twenty-three, he should already belong to the Young Zhuang faction, after all, he has indeed joined the navy and started to go out to fight. In the past, he didn't even bother to look at Han Xiao in the Han family, and he didn't bother to ask about the bullying of Han Xiao by his clan, but he really couldn't imagine that the kid who could only hold his head and be beaten would stand in front of him with such a posture today.
Seeing that Han Lishan was stunned, Han Xiao simply asked the other clansmen again, and those people were more or less taboo about the current Han Xiao, and quickly explained the matter.
It turned out that it was really a game.
Of course, it's not entirely accurate to say it's a game. This is a trial, but the difficulty of the trial is not as difficult as the previous time when the Imperial Navy was in the Andi Sea. The big family of Tianning Kingdom seems to be unwilling to be reluctant to always have a backwater in Shuanglong City, but each family does not dare to turn the secret battle into an open dispute, and after thinking about it, they have come up with such a trial. Each family sent seven warships to fight in the inland waters of the Tianning Kingdom, and the battle had to be young people, of course, there was no clear limit to this young standard, it was just a cruel battle.
To put it bluntly, the battle of the big family has reached the point of tension, but he doesn't dare to break it completely, so he can only let the juniors come out to fight. Even if it is completed smoothly, at least the family that wins in the end will be able to see which juniors are more worthy of cultivation through this battle. And if you don't play well and hit a real fire, maybe you can find an opportunity to do it. After listening to the Han family, Han Xiao had already seen through the thoughts of those old guys.
Han Xiao is just not good at cultivation, not stupid, how can he not understand these intrigues between big families from a wealthy family.
"So, those two Chen family's warships, since the people on board have surrendered, we can also kill them?" Han Xiao asked, pointing to the Chen family's warship.
This question made the children of the Han family stunned, including the captain Han Lishan. After being stunned for a while, Han Lishan said: "Since they have surrendered, they can spare their lives." ”
"Oh. Han Xiao nodded, but immediately asked, "Why spare their lives?"
Han Lishan was stunned for a while, and then his face became very ugly, and he still hadn't gotten used to Han Xiao's posture in front of him. Now he feels that Han Xiao is like a high-ranking general, and he is just a small soldier who obeys the dispatch. Thinking of this, Han Lishan's temper couldn't help but grow, and he said angrily, "Why should I listen to your dispatch?"
Han Xiao looked at Han Lishan very calmly, although he was much more childish than Han Lishan, but there was a bit of disdain in his eyes. Before they knew it, the gap between them had emerged. After glancing at each other, Han Xiao simply didn't say anything, just turned around and left the Han family's warship and returned to the Freedom.
Han Lishan looked at Han Xiao angrily, as if he wanted to find a way to vent his anger, but in the end, he couldn't come up with any way. Just when he was struggling, he suddenly found that Han Xiao drove the Freedom to quickly approach the Chen family's two warships, and then rushed up without thinking about it. At this time, there was already some distance between the two sides, and Han Lishan couldn't feel the aura fluctuations over there, so he couldn't tell what strength Han Xiao and his subordinates were, but judging from the battle situation, Han Lishan and the Han family couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
This battle was not a fair battle at all, Han Xiao and the big black man beside him were like killing gods, like wolves entering a flock of sheep and rampage to defeat the children of the Chen family, Han Lishan watched as the children of the Chen family who had been against him for many years were defeated by Han Xiaoqing, and then were cleanly beheaded, and the children of the Chen family on the other boat wanted to escape, but they also failed to escape the doom. Soon, the two Chen family warships were cleaned by Han Xiao, and Han Xiao did not go too far, except for the Chen family who resisted in the early stage and was killed, the people who were captured were only charged.
It's just that those who were accused were not at peace, and after a few brief words with them, Han Xiao gave them a small boat and threw them directly into the sea. Although this is an inland sea, if seventy or eighty people want to return to Tianning Kingdom on such a small ship, it is actually no different from being killed.
From beginning to end, Han Lishan and they could only be reduced to spectators, just watching Han Xiao's clean killing and clean act of banishing people, Han Lishan and they only felt cold hands and feet. Naval battle, Han Lishan has not never fought, it can also be said to be murderous, but after all, this is a trial between big families, although the rules do state that the winning side has the right to kill everyone on the ship of the vanquished, but this approach is still a little too much after all, in Han Lishan's opinion, this is the biggest hidden danger that is easy to lead to the outbreak of the war.
"This stinky boy, he doesn't understand anything, and he is still so ruthless, is this looking for death?" Han Lishan said through gritted teeth.
Hearing him say this, the children of the Han family on the side finally opened their mouths, and they all began to criticize Han Xiaolai. Among them, the loudest is Han Junming, who has lost to Han Xiao before. In fact, Han Lishan may be blaming Han Xiao because he considers the overall situation, but the rest of the Han family people follow the criticism, more just because they want to criticize, they just can't accept that the waste boy in the past is now showing off his might in front of them.
Han Xiao asked Han Lishan for a battle flag of the Han family, and after hanging it on the Freedom, he swaggered and continued to sail towards Tianning Kingdom, the interesting thing is that the two Chen family warships all became Han Xiao's trophies, so Han Xiao also reluctantly separated one of the ten crew members to control one of the warships, and then connected the two ships together and sailed behind the Freedom. Until leaving, Han Xiao did not call Han Lishan and them to go along.
This time he saved the Han family by mistake, and Han Xiao didn't feel much proud, and even faintly worried. In the imperial capital, it can be regarded as a circle, and he has also seen the behavior of the children of the nobles in the imperial capital, in his opinion, if this matter is replaced by the Chi family, they will definitely kill everyone in the Chen family today. To go to war is to start a war, and since you have already torn your skin and decided to fight, don't hesitate to kill it too ugly.
As long as it is a fight, it will inevitably be ugly, and Han Xiao found that the children of the Han family seemed to be thinking too much.
In this so-called trial, Han Xiao was not interested in participating in it at all, and asking for the Han family's battle flag was just because he didn't want to conflict with the Han family again. It's just that I have to say that although the domestic sea of Tianning is also very large, it is really too small and small compared to the open sea, or the battlefield of the trial is set up too concentrated, Han Xiao encountered seven naval battles intermittently on the way to Tianning Kingdom, three of which were originally two sides fighting like the original one, and Han Xiao had no choice but to join the battle group.
In seven naval battles, Han Xiao captured more than a dozen warships, and in the end, he even had four crew members to take the captured warships on the road. Fortunately, just when King Zhuge thought that he couldn't divide people out, Han Xiao finally stopped causing trouble everywhere, because according to the instructions on the chart, they were about to be able to dock-
Ssangyong City Harbor.
As the capital of Tianning Kingdom, Shuanglong City has always represented the most powerful existence of Tianning Kingdom. This seaport is also the largest seaport in Tianning Kingdom, the port can accommodate hundreds of warships to dock at the same time, Rao is the time when the Imperial Navy came to Tianning Kingdom, and many people sighed about the size of this seaport.
In the past, although the harbor of Shuanglong City was very lively, there were few bigwigs, but recently, there have always been many bigwigs in Shuanglong City near the harbor. The reason is very simple, this trial between the big families only lasted for two months in total, and now that the days are coming to an end, many families have sent strong people to sit in the town, for fear that there will be some accidents when their children return to the port.
The shore was much more lively than before, but the harbor was deserted than before, and thirty percent of the waters of the harbor were emptied, waiting for the children who had returned from the trial to dock. However, there are too few warships docked in recent times, after all, even if the warships have been damaged and strict, even if they are towed, they will not return until a few days, after all, returning early often means failure.
But today, as bored people continue to look for better ways to spend their time on shore, a fleet slowly emerging at sea level is the focus of everyone's attention.
"What's going on, why is there a fleet?" someone asked the person next to him hesitantly.
"Look at the battle flag, first determine the identity of the fleet. "Experienced generals are starting to take command, after all, the surrounding waters are emptied, and if the enemy appears, they will be very passive.
Everyone watched for a long time, and finally a lookout with good eyesight and magic weapons shouted: "I see it, I see whose battle flag it is!"
